After the night that they walked around the carnival, Long Fei and Su Ruan had not met each other for more than a week.

Long Fei informed her that he will be out of town for work and Su Ruan did not think much about it. With his big company and high position, Su Ruan had long expected that someone like Long Fei would be busy with his work.

These days, Su Ruan spent her time working on her writing as well as helping around the orchard. Whenever she was not that busy, her cousin, Ma Yu Xi would drag her around the town and showed her a few scenic spots.

However, Su Ruan had always thought that the scenic spot that Long Fei had shown to her was the best. As she thought about that man, Su Ruan realized that it has been days since the last time she had seen him.

"Sister Ruan, what are you thinking about?" Ma Yu Xi was packing up some food that their grandmother had prepared when she noticed that her cousin has been staring into space.

Hearing her cousin's voice, Su Ruan quickly snapped out of her trance. "Nothing. I was just wondering if the weather is going to change soon?"

"Ah?" Ma Yu Xi looked up and finally heaved in relief when she saw the bright sky. "Sister Ruan, don't scare me. We already made a plan to go swimming in the evening. What would we do if it's going to rain?"

Su Ruan smiled as she listened to her cousin's complaining.

Ma Yu Xi had always wanted to bring her out to swim in the lake water. However, after the discovery of that giant snake, they have decided not to enter the water.

Now that people began to forget that story, Ma Yu Xi thought that it would be a good idea to go swimming again. It has been a long time since the last time she went swimming. She was beginning to miss the lake water.

Just then, Su Ruan's phone at the side rang. Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw the name on the call ID. Then, she quickly picked up the phone call.

"Hello, Su Ruan?" The woman's gentle voice could be heard on the other line.

"Editor Ji, hello." Su Ruan greeted and the two of them exchanged brief pleasantries.

"Su Ruan, are you still on your vacation?" Editor Ji Fan Yin asked.

Previously, Su Ruan had told the editor that she was taking a long break to spend her time with her grandparents. She had told her that she needed to calm down after the incident with Director Gao happened.

Su Ruan's relationship with Editor Ji Fan Yin had always been good while she was working for Upcoming Magazine. After the editor had helped her to get a freelance job, Su Ruan's relationship with the editor had only turned better.

The two of them would often text each other to catch up.

"Mmm… You can say that."

"Are you planning to come to Capital City soon?" The Editor asked. "I have a few friends who are looking for a freelance writer as well. I saw that the job was not that difficult and wanted to recommend you. However, the company would require you to visit their headquarter to discuss this matter and sign the contract."

Hearing that there was a potential new writing job, Su Ruan was definitely interested. "Editor Ji, what type of work is it?"

The Editor briefed her about the new writing job. The more Su Ruan heard about it, the more she was interested in it. The company had several magazines and each one of them had a lot of readers.

"I do have a plan to visit Capital City, but it was a month later," Su Ruan spoke.

"That's fine too. The company was not in a hurry," Editor Ji said. "The writer for that column will have two more months with the company before she quit to focus on her children. I think there should be no problem if you want to come in a month and discuss this matter. I'll inform this matter to my friend and update you later."

Su Ruan heaved in relief. "Thank you, Editor Ji."

The two of them discussed this new writing job for a while.

"That's right. You said you are coming to Capital City. Su Ruan, are you planning to find a new job soon?"

"No." Su Ruan chuckled. "Just that, a friend is getting married and I promised to stay longer and help with the preparation."

"So, it was like that."

Her lips pressed into a thin line as she recalled that Yu Zhi Yi would be getting married soon.

These days, Su Ruan thought that she was beginning to let go of that feeling for him. However, she was still worried that her feelings would sway the moment she saw him with Shen Yue.

It would not be that easy to attend the wedding of that person she had secretly loved for years. She was not confident that she was going to make it through.

However, she could not miss his wedding. Yu Zhi Yi has been her best friend for years. Moreover, she had promised him that she would come as his best woman.

Su Ruan continued to chat with the editor for a while before she finally hung up her phone.

Once the call ended, Su Ruan clicked on her planner and tapped in the date where she was supposed to be meeting the new company and discussing the new writing job.

Then, she stared at the calendar for a long time. Her focus was on the date when Yu Zhi Yi and Shen Yue would join hands to be married. A wry smile appeared on her lips as she thought of her job as Yu Zhi Yi's best woman.

It seemed that there was not a long time before she will have to return to Capital City and face everything.

There was not a lot of time left but she still hasn't made any preparation to return.. Su Ruan stared at her phone, wondering if she should crash at Lin Qing's place while she was in Capital City to attend the wedding.
